According to Yahoo, Minorities made up almost 70% of the Fast&Furious6 audience.

thats awesome
It was a nice varied cast. I did find it funny that Luda became the "hacker" in the group. I just didnt know that was part of his character, thought he was just an awesome mechanic.

It's been known that minorities, especially blacks go to the movies most........yet we still don't have great representation, it's getting better but it's going very slow.

Single-handedly caused Exxon-Mobil to sue FOX, start World War 3
Still creepy... my O-face and my sneezy face are similar, so I have no idea if I'm going to get commercials for Allegra or KY the next time my wife cooks black pepper steak.

No one's directly responsible for what KevinCow or anyone else on this forum does or says, offline or on.
However, you can contribute to someone doing something without wanting to push them, being blameable, being detectable, or any combination of the three. Just because someone does not directly cause something to happen does not absolve them of all blame if they contributed to it. "Blame," is subjective though;
I didn't think you set out to push KevinCow to commit suicide. The moment I saw that virgin thread title, I did think you were trying to poke fun at/shame virgins; none of the concerned tone of that post seemed genuine, especially when coupled with posts you've made in the past.
One of your posts in that "hitting on people," thread
It's posts like this that suggest you have a grudge against nerds/socially awkward people for some reason. No one said anything like that in the thread. You replied to some notion that existed elsewhere. You either didn't see my post(s) that brought up the question about "meeting someone special," or you ignored the subsequent posts further explaining the question until I responded to you.
If someone who's a nerd/virgin/whatever and says something assholish that deserves hostility in response, then reply directly to them. Making vague, passive-aggressive sweeping statements meant to get at them ensures people you weren't targeting will get caught in the crossfire.
You might be trying humiliate/shame people or you might not; it can't be proven either way, not that that really matters. What does matter is that someone will always take a given post in the worst way possible and making a thread that at all has a tone suggesting being a virgin is inherently bad or pathetic is going to start some trouble. Again, I don't know whether that's your intention, but that's simply going to happen.
Making people ashamed for being/feeling a certain way on purpose or otherwise can contribute to situations like KevinCow almost committing suicide. Instead of focusing on exactly how you're not to blame, why not try change what you do? If I didn't hold a door open as I pass through it for a person who's been dealing with depression, letting it shut in their face and they take that as the final straw before offing themselves, do I tell myself "Well, it's not my responsibility to hold that door and I can't walk on eggshells all day 'cause I might make someone a bit more sad"? Or do I think "Damn, maybe I should hold doors for people?"
There's no inherently right answer; if you want to take the route of "not my business/problem/Etc." you're well within your right. If you said it'd be a constant hassle to worry about how everyone feels at all times, you'd be exactly right. Being considerate takes effort. However, it's worth considering whether other peoples' lives and feelings are worth that hassle.
Any point can be made without pissing people off or making them hate themselves; you can discuss someone's virginity without making them ashamed, or someone's bigotry without them feeling animosity toward you. It's not easy to do that all the time though. This is just an internet forum, not a job for most people who post here, save for the mods, I guess; can't ask or expect people to put in that effort. The most I'll do is ask people to consider it.

It called out with an awesome power and told me to grasp victory.
The only FF movie I ever watched all the way through was part 2, I felt bad for Paul walker and wondered how Tyrse thought he could act.

I'm glad I stayed out of the Virgin thread.

The physical form of blasphemy
I really don't understand blind consumer loyalty. If you're balling, then maybe. The used game nonsense is doing a grand job of illustrating why people need to take a fucking economics 101 class as soon as possible. Yeesh.
With companies I take a "what have you done for me lately". That is why I don't fuck with apple.
About to get my first gaming computer in over 7 years. Feels good.

Welcome to the winning team!
Any particular reason you've not jumped into PC up until now?
I built a PC a couple of months ago, and had up until that point never been able to play PC-games on the highest settings.
Now though:
I'll grab a PS4 if I can afford it, but only if it isn't filled with anti-consumer stuff like the Xbone. If it is, I'll just try to get an Oculus Rift instead.

Ill have to try it like that
Not at all and much cheaper than mcd, bk or 6 guys
I would go I5 but with 16 with 16 gb of ram that good. I would upgrade to 7970 then you'll be future proof till the middle of ps4 gen
I got a good deal on this, so I am not going to complain.
Damn if you got a good deal on that its amazing lol. You should be able to run every thing.
is 750 good?
750 is amazing for that. Granted, it's iffy considered what console games would require, but from a power/price standpoint, it's a great deal
